Hi Ashfame,

Yes, that’s right. Quite odd. In the end I settled for integrating logins across both WP and bbPress and maintaining the two separate themes. I’d like to get to the bottom of it though.

Best Regards, Karl

You mean you are redirected to WordPress dashboard when you click any submit button in bbPress dashboard?

You can add your input on the bbPress Forum Profiles over in the relevant Trac Ticket JJJ opened a few days ago, I already added my own thoughts back then too, but in general the ”framework” is there with the WordPress Profile, it might just need a little extra stuff! https://trac.bbpress.org/ticket/1364

Hi,

I’ve been very careful with a fresh install of bbPress and testing functionality at each step of integrating with WordPress. I have the problem narrowed down to this code snippet that goes into the bb-config.php file:

/* Deep integration */

if ( !defined('ABSPATH') && !defined('XMLRPC_REQUEST')){

define('WP_USE_THEMES', false);

include_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/../wp-blog-header.php' );

header("HTTP/1.1 200 OK");

header("Status: 200 All rosy");

}

No feedback yet (it was Thanksgiving Day yesterday after all) but I hope this will help you, help me.

Best Regards, Karl

What’s the story with the Forum Profiles?

Hoping that the devs gonna stick with the built-in one and then allow users to either grab Theme My Login or BuddyPress to allow public editing if they feel they need it.

[Rich Pedley]

The included theme is an example – in time you’ll see a few themes that are bbPress ready.

[driz]

Noticed in the latest revision that the bbPress theme appears within the WP Themes section, but I don’t like the fact you have to activate the bbPress theme and then just inherit the Parent Theme would much rather that the theme files be within the actual WP theme like you do when using the Template Pack for BuddyPress.

Also I also strongly agree with the others about NOT having public profiles, there are plenty of plugins out there than can do this so no need for it, plus if you have buddypress running as well you will end up with duplicate profiles like you do with the current stand-alone bbPress system.

EDIT: Actually WP supports public profiles out of the box /author/yourname it’s just a case of the template file showing the additional information! But if you want to make them public editable then grab Theme My Login plugin.

Rich,

Thanks. I registered with the site a while back, but didn’t realize I had so much ability on the back end. I didn’t see how to start a new forum but I see how you basically control what is presented with page templates.

Since there is a “single-bbp_forum” file in the theme’s directory, I assume I can assign a single forum to a specific page. This is what I need.

Looks promising.

Thanks!

[John James Jacoby]

@gswaim – In short, yes it is possible, although it may require an additional plugin file to help bridge the two together, or at least some customized theme files to handle the display of forums and topics within your custom setup.

[Rich Pedley]

gswaim, test it out and see if it does what you want – I’d be inclined to say yes.

I update every few days, so it is fairly upto date.

JJJ and Crew,

I have been waiting a long time for this plug-in. I can hang on, as long as I know it can do what I need. I am not sharp enough to look at the current files and understand how it gets implemented; therefore, I have one basic question.

I am using my WP install to deliver the equivalent of an online course. I want to provide a forum for each module within the course. So, with the bbPress plugin, will I be able to put a given forum on one page and another forum on another page?

It appears that most of the presentation is controlled by code on a page template. I could create multiple page templates, as needed. I just don’t know if your solution will allow me to display a specific forum on a specific page.

Thanks for your work on this!

Profiles are mandatory in a forum…

[Joris]

@willabee I also think that it is important to keep this plugin as simple as possible. But the profiles are already included in the backend of WP, to bring this to the frontend would be important to keep the look and feel of the site.

@Dudd This would be an option indeed. But since the topic posts aren’t included in the author archives, it still wouldn’t be possible for users to find their posts back..

[Commentguerir]

I think this is bug on bbpress trunk 2651 … how can i fix it ?

Hi,

I hope someone can help me here, I’ve tried Googling and searching this forum but haven’t been successful in finding an answer.

WordPress 3.01 using TwentyTen theme

bbPress 1.02 using modified Kakumei theme.

Single database with additional chars added to table names (e.g. wp_obscure_)

I integrated WordPress and bbPress by following this tutorial by Ashfame.

I can access the bbPress Dashboard but I cannot make any changes to the Settings or (more importantly) add new Forums or sub forums – I am redirected to the WP dashboard when I press the “Add Forum” button (or similar submit elsewhere).

Naturally, I can’t be going into the database each time a new forum is required.

Best Regards, Karl

[Willabee]

I prefer they don’t add profiles to this plugin, that’s not neccesairy for a forum plugin. They should keep this as simple as possible.

[Joris]

I am testing the plugin and really like the simplicity of it. This could be an ‘community’ alternative to Buddypress, because I found Buddypress too heavy for high traffic sites.But what I really like from Buddypress are the public profiles and front end account / admin options.

Are there any plans to make public profiles in this new plugin, instead of using the default WP admin area? Something like BBpress has right now for example..

[DeysonOrtiz]

@Driz: Which folder? What should the permissions be set at ?

Thank you.

[driz]

@DeysonOrtiz

I had the same issue, check your permissions! Fixed it for me.

[LPH2005]

@rich-pedley

Didn’t realize that the movement of theme files was no longer necessary.

Update:

Site #1

I see that the forum theme files are present in the plugin directory. The site is using the bbp-twentyten them on that site.

Site #2

Copied files to the child theme for buddypress to work properly. Modified as described above so that the theme understood the css properly.

PS. Why is my previous post about css marked as spam? I can remove the link to the site but otherwise, thought the information was helpful.
